No really, who the hell do you think you're making an ultimatum to? Oberon? Mookie? Tchocky?

If Assange is not intered in Gitmo I will object to Gitmo as a place of detention.

Well that's terribly exciting.

Congradulations, your last post is even more irrelevant that the previous one. You are on a roll.

Edit: aimed at the third man

I dont make ultimatums to anyone. And i don't allow others to make that ultimatum on my behalf.

Try again. And your a moderator? poor form.

Wah, thread failure.

Regarding our favourite creepy-looking Australian (seriously, love him or hate him, the man looks odd), I'm not surprised he didn't make bail. The judge, to his credit, has requested to view the Swedish evidence, and has maintained that these proceedings have nothing to do with Wikileaks.
They might be in existence due to the activities of Wikileaks, but the to-and-fro of the courts should be based on solely the evidence and appropriate extradition laws.

Speaking of the charges, this piece in the Mail really got me curious, it's well worth a read.

As for Assange, he remains in *hiding in Britain, and his website continues to release classified American documents that are *daily embarrassing the U.S. government.

Clearly, he is responsible for an avalanche of political leaks. Whether he is also guilty of sexual offences remains to be seen.

But the more one learns about the case, the more one feels that, unlike the bell in Enkoping, the allegations simply don’t ring true

Although if you're like me you'll want to prepare for the "******* me, I've just given the Mail my attention" feeling

Oh, okay, cool, cool. Your ultimatum was not an ultimatum. You were coining a term.

So listen up all. Listen good. If the Cowboys beat the Eagles, I will no longer consider Texas to be a state in the Union, and fully expect all future correspondences regarding Texas to be addressed in that manner. That is all.

EDIT: I am a moderator, but I don't moderate GT anymore. Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this 'discussion'. And you have no business lecturing anyone on decorum.

What is the problem? I thought you more smart than that. Am I wrong?

Sorry. My limited intellect and low standing have rendered that as the best I could do.

Oberon · 12-07-10, 04:23 PM

Well, it's not surprising since rape charges usually don't get bail due to the risk of re-offending, likewise he couldn't give an address and therefore poses the risk of doing a runner before he could be brought before a court.

As for the charges against him not 'ringing true', well, time will tell but I imagine they will stick, they've got a lot of money and power behind them and even if they didn't, it's a blemish on him and ammunition for his detractors. There's nothing easier to smear someones reputation than a rape allegation.

Does Texas actually consider itself to be a state in the union?

I see, and what about the guy before him?

Shrug. You are'n't very bright are you?

Irrelevant. I no will no longer consider it so, and will then no longer answer any query or challenge, regardless of how factual, that may be posed.

EDIT: I knew what you were saying, you are right; Texans are reknowned for their independent spirit. It is almost another country down there.
